Can my body forget how to let down?

Before I stopped breast feeding I had a really strong let down reflex. I could always feel it coming and we had to learn to deal with milk coming too fast for my babe. It's been about 2 months with only comfort nursing and around a week of relactating and I'm not letting down. I never do with the pump and I'm starting to get DD to suck a bit harder but she never gets the faster flow of milk so she gets frustrated. Is it possible that my body forgot how to let down? Is there anything I can do to encourage it? I think if I could get that going for me I may have a fighting chance to get DD back on the breast.
